I obviously am not revealing the dress Meggie picked, but I’m so amazed at how wonderful the experience was going shopping to find the perfect dress for her to get married in next June.

Meg picked her wedding dress with her ladies!

Meg picked her wedding dress today!

We did get cupcakes to celebrate, though my cupcake was also to celebrate something else!

Meg & Katelyn got cupcakes too
